To Devil,

I have listened to you for so
many years.
All you have done is cause
many tears.

I'm done with you.
I'm not a fool.

I'm going to turn my life around,
even if I have to beat you into the ground.

Get out of here
I do not fear

Its time for you to go back to hell.
I don't care who you tell

I think its kinda neat
that you will suffer in the heat.

I appreciate that!

A good poem for someone in reflection and attempting to escape the dark. Sadistic yet satisfying!

[Donna]

Thank you for the review!😊

I enjoyed this piece. I find the idea of acknowledging our inner demons cathartic. Also, it provides reference to where we need to focus on our lives and recognize our shortcomings. Very nice work.

[Donna]

Thank you so much!

Seems we are always "free" to chose a path someone/thing else chooses for us to use or follow.

[Donna]

Thank you for the review Chris!

I believe we invite him to our thoughts through how we think. In some ways, it may be apparent and yet we ignore it, almost as if we were in a spell and don't realize it until we find ourselves worked up.

I agree! Thanks for taking time to read it.😳
